It basically started with the beginning of the end of a long history and era, of a railway \u00a0station situated on the outskirts of the Singapore Central Business District, traveling through the tracks to the North and into Malaysia, with a beautiful Green Corridor belt that goes beyond the knowledge and understanding from the population here. The Tanjong Pagar KTM Railway Train Station will be returned to Singapore on 1st July 2011, with 30th June 2011 being the last day of train operations from the Grand Old Dame, Tanjong Pagar KTM Railway \u00a0Station.<\/p>\n
This is not a call for celebration, this is a call to remember and respect the history, heritage and relationship between the 2 countries of Singapore and Malaysia, going beyond politics and governments talking, it goes way beyond that, entrenching the roots and friendship between the people too. The news of Tanjong Pagar KTM Railway Station and Bukit Timah Railway Station being preserved and gazetted as historical monuments, are definitely welcomed and we do not to see Old Places being removed for the sake of a country’s thirst for land, expansion and development.<\/p>\n
However, at a certain point in time, there wasn’t much clear indication nor direction on what would happen to our beautiful Green Corridor, a nature belt that spanned the railway train tracks. Would the forest, trees, flowers, animals be removed for the sake and in the name of expansion and development? Having grown up with the abandoned railway track near my primary school, I was fascinated by these Old Places, history, heritage and the Green Corridor<\/a>.<\/p>\n With my own style of social media networking and tools, I started upon a chosen way, to do my own personal project, it’s a social cause on my own and as I later found out, a social cause for many Singaporeans. I took 3 photojournalistic adventures, from the abandoned railway tracks from<\/p>\n – Teban Gardens to Sunset Way Railway Bridge<\/a><\/p>\n – Sunset Way to Bukit Timah Railway Station<\/a><\/p>\n – Bukit Timah Railway Station to Ten Mile Junction<\/a><\/p>\n
